Skjern Å, the largest river in Denmark by water volume. Denmark has approximately 900 streams with outlet to the sea. Almost half are less than 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) long. 52 of them are over 25 kilometres (16 mi) long and 17 are over 50 kilometres (31 mi) long.
Denmark's largest river measured by water volume, the Skjern River, also emerges in Tinnet Krat, close to the source of Gudenå. The Gudenå or Gudenåen ( pronounced [ˈkuˀðn̩ˌɔˀn̩] ), is Denmark 's longest river and runs through the central parts of the Jutlandic peninsula.
Skjern River (Danish: Skjern Å) is the largest river in Denmark, in terms of volume. The river has its spring in Tinnet Krat in central Jutland, very close to Denmark's longest river, the Gudenå. It drains about one tenth of Denmark and flows into the Ringkøbing Fjord - a lagoon and former bay of the North Sea.
It can be thought of as a list of the biggest rivers on Earth, measured by a specific metric. For context, the volume of an Olympic-size swimming pool is 2,500 m 3 (88,000 cu ft). The average flow rate at the mouth of the Amazon is sufficient to fill more than 83 such pools each second.
In particular, there seems to exist disagreement as to whether the Nile [3] or the Amazon [4] is the world's longest river. The Nile has traditionally been considered longer, but in 2007 and 2008 some scientists claimed that the Amazon is longer [5] [6] [7] by measuring the river plus the adjacent Pará estuary and the longest connecting tidal ...
Aarhus River (Danish: Århus Å) is a 40-kilometre (25 mi) long river, in eastern Jutland, Denmark.. The river flows through the large river valley of Aarhus Ådal. The valley itself, stretches from Silkeborg to the coastal city of Aarhus, but the Aarhus River only runs through the easternmost parts. [1]

The border of Europe and Asia is here defined as from the Kara Sea, along the Ural Mountains and Ural River to the Caspian Sea.While the crest of the Caucasus Mountains is the geographical border with Asia in the south, Georgia, and to a lesser extent Armenia and Azerbaijan, are politically and culturally often associated with Europe; rivers in these countries are therefore included.
